Use the Libraries panel to specify the libraries and their search paths if the libraries are available in nonstandard location. You can specify multiple additional libraries and library search paths. The following table lists and describes the various options available on the Libraries panel.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Libraries ( -l) | This option enables the linker to search a standard list of directories for the library, which is actually a file named ' liblibrary.a'. The linker then uses this file as if it had been specified precisely by name. The directories searched includes several standard system directories plus any that you specify with ' -L'. The only difference between using an ' -l' option and specifying a file name is that ' -l' surrounds library with ' lib' and ' .a' and searches several directories. |
| Library search path ( -L) | This option lists paths that the VSPA linker searches for libraries. The linker searches the paths in the order it appears in the list. |
